(a) Make the programming for each PEG access channel available in a nondiscriminatory manner to all holders or incumbent cable operators providing video service in the service area of the local government.
(b) Provide all facilities necessary for connectivity to a single PEG access channel distribution point in the service area of the local government, except that the first 200 feet extending from the video service network for the connectivity is the responsibility of the holder.
4. Where necessary and technically feasible, holders or incumbent cable operators shall use reasonable efforts to interconnect their video service networks for the purpose of exchanging PEG access channel programming on mutually acceptable rates, terms and conditions.
